Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed.

Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.
- President, General, and all-around great American, Dwight D. Eisenhower
